Differences in gene expression and cytokine production by crystalline vs. amorphous silica in human lung epithelial cells
BACKGROUND: Exposure to respirable crystalline silica particles, as opposed to amorphous silica, is associated with lung inflammation, pulmonary fibrosis (silicosis), and potentially with lung cancer. We used Affymetrix/GeneSifter microarray analysis to determine whether gene expression profiles dif...
